"Anran?"

Seeing the little girl approaching, Li Chen’s eyes brimmed with joy.

Anran, seeing Li Chen, also excitedly waved her arms and legs.

"Big brother, where have you been? You haven’t visited Anran for so long, Anran missed you so much!"

Li Chen pinched Anran’s delicate and lovely cheeks, smiling as he said, "Big brother has been busy recently. Has Anran been a good girl?"

Anran pouted and said, "Good, of course good. The Fairy Sister even taught me how to play the piano!"

Li Chen was surprised: "Fairy Sister?"

Anran pointed to the painting and said, "It’s the sister in the painting!"

Li Chen pondered and stared at the scroll, his pupils slightly contracted, projecting three streams of consciousness to probe it.

However, the result of his investigation took him by surprise.

The state of the scroll seemed to be one of emptiness.

But if the scroll does not exist, how could Anran’s descriptions be explained?

Could it be that this scroll forms its own little world, and is not on the same plane as Earth, and that’s why this situation has arisen?

But why does this happen, and who left it on Earth?

Was it accidental, or was there intent behind it?

"Big brother, is the Fairy Sister pretty?"

Anran fluttered her sapphire-like big eyes, cheekily pressing for an answer.

"Yes, pretty!" Li Chen replied nonchalantly to Anran’s question.

"Then, should the Fairy Sister become your wife, would that be good?"

"Eh?"

Li Chen looked at Anran with a stunned face. It hadn’t been long since he last saw her, and this little girl was already playing matchmaker.

"Anran, did the Fairy Sister teach you to say this?"

Anran shook her head and said, "No, I just see that the Fairy Sister is very lonely by herself, so I thought about asking big brother to accompany her."

After saying this, she raised her little head again, with a face full of innocence, and asked, "Big brother, are you willing?"

Li Chen thought for a moment and said, "Well, I’d have to meet your Fairy Sister first, right?"

Anran said, "The Fairy Sister can’t come out. She said that this ’realm of painting’ is a prison that confines them. They will never be able to leave in this lifetime!"

Them? Realm of painting? Prison?

Li Chen astutely caught the key information in Anran’s words. This essentially confirmed his previous guess.

The painting forms its own little world, not on the same plane as Earth.

As for the owner of the scroll and why it appeared on Earth, as well as who are those confined within it, these were questions Li Chen did not have answers to.

It seemed, to unveil the mysteries of this painting, he would need to achieve Golden Core Formation at the very least.

"Right, big brother, Anran has something nice to give you!"

As she spoke, Anran opened her little hand and passed a silver-white stone to Li Chen.

Seeing the object before him, Li Chen was startled.

"Moonlight Stone?"

Anran tilted her head, looked at the stone in her hand, and said, "Is this a Moonlight Stone? It looks quite like it, hehe, then let’s call it a Moonlight Stone!"

"Big brother, you don’t know, the Moonlight Stone can also move. Anran spent several days to find this one."

Moonlight Stone is not a physical object, but rather a concentration of the holy power of moonlight, solidified into form.

During the day, this thing is essentially useless. But at night, it becomes a powerful tool for enhancing one’s strength.

However, moonlight that shines on Earth disperses greatly after refracting through the atmosphere, making the chances of solidifying into a Moonlight Stone extremely slim, almost nil.

Moreover, even if by some stroke of luck it does solidify into a Moonlight Stone, it will dissipate with the rise of the sun if not promptly collected.

Even in the Cultivation World, the value of this item is no less than that of a top-grade spirit crystal.

With this Moonlight Stone, if one were to gather five Divine Souls and form the Five Elements Battle Armor, even if the Yuann Family Ancestor were to emerge from seclusion, I would have the power to clash with him head-on.

But at present, I’ve only gathered the Divine Souls of Golden Cauldron True Man, Heavenly Demon Ancestor, Tang Leiting, and Golden Python King—still one short.

With these thoughts, Li Chen turned his gaze towards the direction of Bashu.

...

Bashu Tang Sect:

The news that Tang Yulin and Yuann Yutong, allied with the King of Assassins, Johnson Jiao’en, had set up an ambush at Yuhua Mountain to kill Li Chen but were all counter-killed instead, had already made its way back.

Immediately, the higher echelons and direct descendants of the Tang Sect all gathered within the main hall.

After a long while, Mr. Tang, leaning on his cane, full of sorrow, exclaimed, "Sinful, sinful!"

Members of the Tang Family hung their heads, mourning as if they had lost their ancestors.

Originally, their plan was to make peace with Immortal Master Li and his supporting Li Family, withdrawing from the conflict between the Yuann and Li families, and maintaining neutrality.

The Tang Family would take this opportunity to recuperate, waiting for the two tigers to fight and inflict mutual damage, and then come out to reap the benefits.

But now, all of this had been completely disrupted by Tang Yulin’s unilateral actions.

Now that Immortal Master Li and his supporting Li Family are pressing hard, and the Central Continent Yuann Family is in dire straits themselves, they can’t possibly come to the Tang Sect’s aid anymore.

The entire Tang Sect is now teetering on the brink of a storm.

Even the complete fall of the sect is but a matter of time!

"Grandpa, this Immortal Master Li is too bullying. At this point, we have no choice but to go to Sword Pavilion and ask Third Uncle for help. No matter what, he still carries the blood of the Tang Family, and he cannot stand by and watch the family be destroyed!"

The speaker was Tang Yuhong, belonging to the fourth house of the Tang Family.

With Tang Leiting, Tang Yulin of the first house, Tang Qianqiu, Tang Yulang of the second house, having all died at the hands of Li Chen.

The third house had faded away twenty years ago and was basically in name only.

Now, their fourth house is the most powerful and holds the most sway within the entire Tang Family.

Their mentioned Third Uncle, named Tang Fengyang, was also the most demonically talented genius seen in the Tang Family in a century. Along with Li Lingyun of the Li Family from twenty years ago, they were known as the Twin Swords of the Huaxia Martial World!

Only, both of them were like shooting stars, vanishing in a flash.

Now, even their names have been forgotten in the dust of history.

It is said that Tang Fengyang once fell in love with a girl, but his family didn’t approve and insisted on forcing him to marry the second Miss of the Yuann Family. To make him give up on the girl, they even orchestrated an accident to kill her.

Upon learning the truth, Tang Fengyang completely severed ties with the Tang Family and wandered in the worldly society for three years. Then he went into seclusion in Sword Pavilion, withdrawing from worldly affairs ever since.

Hearing Tang Yuhong’s proposal, the others of the Tang Family then remembered that there was such a person as Tang Fengyang.

At this moment, they all forgot their past cold-heartedness towards kinship and mutual persuasion to persuade Grandpa Tang to go to Sword Pavilion and invite Tang Fengyang back.

Hearing the pleadings of his descendants, Grandpa Tang looked distraught, sighing deeply towards the sky.

"Alas, so be it. I committed the sins of that year, and today, I shall personally atone for them!"

After saying this, he looked at Tang Yuhong and said, "Yuhong, you accompany me on this trip!"

Tang Yuhong stepped forward, quickly replying, "Of course, Grandpa!"

It’s like squeezing toothpaste, utterly stuck. Been sitting in front of the computer since 5:30, writing for six or seven hours, and only managed to squeeze out this Chapter! Little Le will try to adjust the condition, thank you all for your support!
